The Free Press is one of my favourite pubs and a thorough mention on the Blog of this fantastic Cambridge place is long overdue and much deserved. Cambridge's true pub lovers, of the old school, traditional kind, will already know it well. I have often found it to be overlooked by locals, however, especially where eating out is concerned. The pub's great food was actually, I am rather ashamed to admit, introduced to me by a very good friend from university who hails from Germany! So, I unfortunately can't claim that The Free Press is entirely one of my own local finds, but it is quickly climbing to the top of my list of "locals," and its atmosphere, draught ales and ciders, and fantastic home-cooked food never disappoint.  If you're into celebrating great British food, you will definitely love exploring the fresh and seasonal menu.
